The community of Grafton has taken all it can bear.
In the past 18 months almost 300 jobs have been lost in the city with the closure of a Telstra call centre and local abattoir.
Add more than 100 to that figure, with the State Government's recent announcement that Grafton jail is being downgraded to a remand centre.
ABC North Coast has been following the Grafton jail saga closely, bringing you the latest news as it happens.
Now, our attention turns to the aftermath.
On this website, ABC North Coast will continue to bring you grassroots stories of how the community is coping, while following the progress of the fight to save their city.
